New Ideas

I'd think it'd be neat if the bushies were automatically watered by rain. Basically, have each plant act as a rainwater collector item. [spoiler]So, after 40 minutes of heavyrain, each bushie would be fully watered and ready to harvest.[/spoiler] Of course, you can water them yourself to help speed up the process. It would be also nice if rainwater did help to replenish the lakes, wells, etc., around the land. That would help to prevent the usefulness of buckets from decreasing. (Having the bushies automatically watered by rainwater would decrease the usefulness of buckets, while having rainwater refill lakes and stuff would increase their usefulness again).

I want to write this down publicly to keep track of it but also to see reactions. Public items that allow resource collecting bring a big big gameplay .."situation". I can't call it "issue" because it is all intended for, it just changes things a bit more. Anyone can load them and anyone can gather the results, regardless of their involvement in the process prior to the collecting. It is why i think this is the best place and time in md development to implement a feature that was in plan for an undefined period, and that had some concept issues that i was unable to solve at that time, but now it makes more sense and i think it found its place in md finally. ST…

Rophs said this in a comment on the forum statuses, but I actually find it quite good O_O "Can't wait for Mur to implement global warming, if we destroy the environment too bad viscosity might never be able to go back down. (This is a REAL suggestion)" All credits go to Rophs. I just felt that there should be a thread made where more people would see it and discuss :)

As the title says, that our ingame "Inventory" items could be organized however we want. Such as, moving certain items to the top (or wherever) of the inventory for easier finding and fast use. Besides that other benefits could include not accidentally using the wrong item when you go to click another one. Say I don't want to drag my slave instead of grabbing a candy from my candy box. (this could be for only us to see, and maybe others would see our inventory as normal when looking into it) Feasible to code? Anyone have anything to say regarding whether they'd like this feature or not?

Pretty much what the title says. The search feature for messages doesn't look into the author. I think it would be a great functionality increase if it would look on the authors name as well for the word/words used for the search query.

I'll start by saying two things: 1) Offtopic - this topic will have long sentences due to my way to exprime in english (I would appreciate it if you had the patience to read all). 2) Ontopic - in every MMORPG I've played, resources plays an important role - to create new things; I wasn't very involved in the collection of resources, but i can say, as a player that had to do with resources in other games, that what is happening now, does not work as it should work (IMO). Why? I will give my reason and on that basis you will make connections by yourself, and tell if you tink the same or have different opinion. Based on the games I've played i can say one thing:…

I think it fits with the concept to allow fights when mirror ritual is active. If this needs elaboration, let me know. or if it's idiotic

Obviously, MD keeps track of how many different scenes we've seen already, as it's currently in use for the research depth (explorer) achievement. I'd like to have a small system-line on the profile, just like the active day counter, that tells you just how many scene you have seen already, and also what percentage of the whole game that is. I know we're not much into ladder quests etc., but i think that little thing would be sufficient to hook a few more people onto MD, just for the sake of seeing more scenes, and would give the vets something nice to brag with.

I would suggest to add "View All" button also after that you click on "View Last 20", because for return back and see all announcements I need to close it and reopen it again...

Food for toughts about games lifecycle, players kind, way to make an free and get some revenue package those links even if not directly aplicable to MD, they can be in part some food for toughts http://www.raphkoster.com/2006/06/16/the-lifecycles-of-a-player/ http://anemonesoft.com/files/tutorial-html/introduction_to_browser_based_online_game_design_and_development.html http://www.altergamer.com/mmorpg-lifecycle/ http://www.altergamer.com/mmorpg-lifecycle/2/ http://www.altergamer.com/mmorpg-lifecycle/3/ http://sheepthediamond.wordpress.com/2013/05/10/crutches/ ---- I think that many have good toughts to wanting to improve MD, its retention of new players, a…

First off, I just want to say that I have already raised this idea with Mur and heard his thoughts on it. He is loosely opposed to the idea, although interested in hearing community opinion on it. Introduction Currently with MD's server costs not being fully met for the next few months, Mur is running a sale to raise funds. This has both ideological benefits and downsides, some of which will be outlined below. The suggestion I am putting to you, the community, is intended to negate as many of the downsides while not compromising the benefits as possible. Any suggestions that further that goal are eagerly invited. The benefits of the current system are as follo…

Lets use his strategy (there are many more out there) to find solutions. Here is the link to a PDF you can look at and read through. After that I would like to create such 3 rooms were everyone of us will find his/her place to use his/her strength to help all of us finding the best solution for the issues which needs attention. http://www.wiredportfolio.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2008/10/DisneyPaper.pdf

Removing the heat limit for Protectors has had some side-effects for Protectors using heat jars. I have over 1.2 million heat active in my erolin device right now, thanks to the dedication and/or thirst for loyalty of my worshippers. This means that whenever I fill a heat jar for use in say, making tea, I'd be needlessly wasting hundreds of thousands of heat, due to how you fill heat jars right now. Therefore, I'd like to propose that things be changed so that you can choose another option when filling up a heat jar, 'Other', for instance. When you select that, you can type in exactly how much heat you want to put in the heat jar. Another option would be to just have …

Would it be possible to get an button, that copy to clipboard the chat window? often when there is meeting, id like to copy to clipboard and paste in notepad, to read and understand as chat is going quick i triy to select and copy but as soon as refresh of an new line, i lose selection ... or lose it in trying to go from selection to copy command if its not big to add, i thnk it would be usefull

[i]Items of this sort could be quite useful for the worshipping, don't you think? [color=#0000ff][Refering to [url="http://magicduel.invisionzone.com/topic/13791-wts-unrefusable-answer-pact-for-credits/"]http://magicduel.inv...ct-for-credits/[/url] , Burns][/color] At the moment someone becomes your worshiper he is granted an item that creates a pact like this one with pros and cons, influenced by your actions. Of course, so is the worshiper himself. That would force certain actions. After all the worshiper is supposed to follow any orders from his master. On the contrary, the master is quite obliged to help and grow his worshipers. If you don't meet the requirements y…

It has been a long time since the number of creatures and items are no longer within a reasonable small number. I've been looking for an easy way to solve this problem. NO. Selling / sacrificing creatures is not the answer answer I am looking for, nor "saving" them to "bestiary". So, here it is: [b]1 mark (true / false) to hide creatures & items from their lists[/b]. [u]What is required[/u] ? Add in database 1 more field / flag as : hidden. [u]What does it do[/u] ? Instead of having a creature list with all the creatures / items, simply display what is chosen. Example: You would have a creature list with [url="http://storenow.net/my/?f=745a68cdd3e7d4b176…

[font=comic sans ms,cursive][color=#006400]Right, so I have a couple of ideas. I'll let my thoughts pour out of me [/color][/font] [font=comic sans ms,cursive][color=#006400]The first, I posted in another thread as well:[/color][/font] [font=comic sans ms,cursive][color=#006400]There can be a shared tool at all land capitals (300 land loyalty required of any homeland) which needs resources and heat to be used. Once used it creates something, eg: A scroll item.[/color][/font] [font=comic sans ms,cursive][color=#006400]Get 10 scrolls in this fashion and there would be another tool at the capitals which consumes them to create a spell book. Use the spell book to learn so…

It would be nice to see some events/quests made by the admins every once in a while, integrated in the game, where the prizes would be unique spells, items with certain powers, but "in character" rather than the out of character nature of forum quests (draw an image, take a photograph, grow a plant), something which could be labeled as side-branch stories of Adventure log. There is no Role Play constant other than the one players create themselves, I think our realm shouldn't be that static.

There were numerous suggestions already to add some "tick boxes" into Ritual selection screen for the sake of easier deletion of combat rituals, and similar, which sadly weren't introduced for some reason, but on top of those, I would like to add another one (I don't think it was suggested before). An "attack with last ritual used" button would be very useful, all that scrolling and opening interface annoyance would be avoided, and I'm sure many lives would be saved with such a button.

[quote]There is a lack of usage of resources and tools[...]because there is not a goal for them to be used.[/quote] [quote]There is no need for resources, they just pile up.[/quote] [quote]Shared tools are only "useless" as you put it, because there's little to do with the resources after you've got them.[/quote] Possible uses for resources:[list] [*]Community Garden buildings, structures [*]Fix the Ivory Lighthouse and the ship at Wraith’s Wreck: free the [url="http://magicduel.invisionzone.com/topic/11802-meeting-about-abra-and-the-empty-aramors"]Empty Aramors[/url] and Tiny Men [*]Repair the bridge to Oak Fort [*][quote name='Rhaegar Targaryen' timestamp='13595…

Drinking excessively should trigger the "hyper-drunk" ... basically being drunk longer (like 1-2 hours to 6-12 hours).

Private Gathering Tools trader (the trader can be one person holding an item or more) - the idea is to give anyone with enough determination to get a Private Tool to gather something - also, these tools must be gained through hard work and / or trading skills Idea is like this :one Independent Gathering Item costs 1k resources of the item's type For example : - Private Herb Basket - requires herbs - Private Stone detector - requires stones - Private Water ... - requires water - Private Candy Box - as there can never be 500 candies at same time, then either reduce the admission (to 50-100) or accept Sticky Goop and so on. There are some tricks for these item…

Greetings, So, why not create mining and fishing tools? We could have pickaxes to mine for ore in perhaps the Underground. There could be furnaces to melt the ore into bars (or perhaps just use heat jars)...this could open up more armor types of things, building materials (I recall the garden needing some metals), etc. Fishing tools could be implemented as well. Fishing poles/nets available (perhaps in Golemus or MB), where you could gather fish as a resource. Heat would be needed to cook the fish to turn them into edible items. Just some ideas, feel free to add to or criticize. (Edit: The mining idea was brought up in a 2010 thread, but it seems like it would be …

As there seems to be a trend for adding new recipes , why not create a skill for using them. I think that name like : chef - cooking / warlock - sorcery (as it is related to mixing stuff) / alchemy / druggist / crafting Do consider to take all recipes together so that there will not be 100 types of skills. Also, the skill points should be given to both participants that used the recipe. As skill points, i think there should be about : ( 0.5 * number of items used for recipe) * 1/100 It might be a small number ... I think. Example: for 5 items used, that makes 2.5 * 0.01 = 0.025 skill points for each ritual. (can there be more then 2 participants to a recipe ?…

As I suggested ingame earlier, it might be helpful to move the pages showing the alliance members into the current alliance page or below the info regarding which land you belong, only for the respective land. E.g. you are part of Golemus, you get to see an updated list of who is in citizenship/alliance anytime, because it makes sense for you to know, but you know nothing about other lands. Anyone else will have to go to the public "notice boards" in the capitals to know. Opinions? I made a poll to vote as well.
